- Jared Huber did not make the trip to Mobile. 2nd straight weekend he's stayed at home. Rodriguez likely to catch every game.- No idea if we should expect Ortega to be healthy and play in the field all weekend or not.- Joe Powell didn't travel to Baylor Tuesday with sickness. I think he's back for this weekend though.

No Huber, Ortega, or Almendarez still.

Cats up 2-0 in the bottom of the 4th.

"Losses to teams like this are RPI killers" are not words you want to hear the opponents radio guys say about you...

Re: Series Thread - @ South Alabama

With new tourney format everyone gets to go with bottom teams having a play in game. Don't think we'll fall that far but not sure it really matters although it might be best shot at a tourney win. Lack of any pitching depth makes doing any real damage in the tourney almost impossible.

Only once in last 12 games have we held the opposition to under 4 runs. Reich actually threw better than his line score last night. Had we any reliable bullpen arms a lot of that damage could have been avoided. First 7 out of 8 batters reached in 5th (6 straight) and only out was sac bunt before Ty pulled Reich. Kind of shows a lack of confidence in the pen.

Forgot to hit the sarcasm button!

Noticed that Reich walked 6 batters in his four inning stint, not good.

I guess at this point of the season, at our current level of athletic performance, the sarcasm should be understood.

I don't think the worst 2 teams in the league make the tournament at all.7-10 seeds play in the play-in games. I don't foresee us making the top 6 at this point. We will likely be in the 7-10 range. Winning the tournament from a 7-10 seed with our pitching depth will be close to impossible.

You are correct, my bad...brain fart. In that case the new format probably hurts. At least if we were 7 or 8 seed we'd have a chance for a win in one of our 2 games. With a single elim for 7-10 its about 50/50 we're one and dun.

Let me ask you a blunt question x since you're close to the program....if you were AD would you make a change in the team's leadership?
